The Chicago Gypsies
Product Code: C69000
Approx. Run Time: 75 min.
This is a play for family audiences about the migratory life of a "show business" child during the Great Depression. Charley is the youngest actress in a company that finds itself stranded, and she becomes a "drop-in" at the local school, where "recess is more like a Roman coliseum." While set in the Depression, the "Chicago gypsies" stubbornly see their way through these "worst of times" to the "best of times" in a regenerative reunion that makes these odd yet ordinary people shine with the miracle of loving, quiet survival.
